"Exceptional performances produced by the inventor of the Reproducing Piano"

The English-born pianist and pedagogue Katherine Bacon (1896-1982)
made her first public appearance at the age of seven.  Her
debut in New York in 1920 immediately established her
reputation in the United States, where she largely remained
for the rest of her life.  She gave up concertizing early in
her career to focus her talents on teaching, and as a member
of the faculty of the Julliard School for 32 years she influenced
the playing of two generations of Pianists.
